Welcome to the Band





Ladies and gentlemen, I'm proud to announce the arrival of a new Sour Landslide album! 

Purveyors of speedy pop mayhem, Toronto’s Sour Landslide released two critically acclaimed records in the mid-'90s. After 27 years, they’ve returned with Welcome to the Band, a new 10-song collection produced by Lowest of the Low’s Ron Hawkins.

Featuring the ferocious drumming of Dee, the stellar bass playing and backing vocals of Vern, and the soaring melodies of singer/guitarist Vince, this release captures the essence of Sour Landslide.

As an added bonus, there’s some mighty fine pedal steel work courtesy of Drones over Dufferin’s Duncan MacKinnon, some tasty keyboards/guitar and backing vocals from Ron, and some enthusiastic backing vocals on Tracks 1, 2, and 5 from Elephants & Stars' Manfred Sittmann and Lazerettes' Chris Tait.

Welcome to the Band was produced by Ron Hawkins. It was recorded at Union Sound Company in Toronto, engineered by Chris Stringer and Darren McGill, and mastered by Joao Carvalho at Joao Carvalho Mastering.
